Third quarter 2020 (Q3/20) compared to third quarter 2019 (Q3/19)

Consolidated sales revenues decreased by 38% to EUR 3,696 mn due to the overall lower global commodity price environment and fallen liquid hydrocarbon sales volumes. The clean CCS Operating Result declined by 67% from EUR 949 mn to EUR 317 mn, primarily due to lower prices and reduced demand. The contribution of Upstream was EUR (24) mn (Q3/19: EUR 449 mn). In Downstream, the clean CCS Operating Result amounted to EUR 335 mn (Q3/19: EUR 490 mn). The consolidation line was EUR 18 mn in Q3/20 (Q3/19: EUR 21 mn). OMV Petrom's contribution to the Group's clean CCS Operating Result totaled EUR 118 mn (Q3/19: EUR 262 mn).

During Q3/20, OMV revised its Brent oil price planning assumptions to reflect a faster paced energy transition. This resulted in net impairments of tangible and intangible assets which, adjusted for tax effects, had an overall EUR (594) mn negative impact on OMV Group's net result of the third quarter.

The clean CCS Group tax rate was 38% (Q3/19: 36%). This was the result, among other factors, of a higher Downstream tax rate due to a lower result from the major at-equity accounted investments. The clean CCS net income weakened to EUR 160 mn (Q3/19: EUR 593 mn). The clean CCS net income attributable to stockholders was EUR 80 mn (Q3/19: EUR 457 mn). Clean CCS Earnings Per Share came in at EUR 0.24 (Q3/19: EUR 1.40).

Net special items of EUR (997) mn were recorded in Q3/20 (Q3/19: EUR (108) mn), which were mainly related to the impairments triggered by OMV's revision of its long-term Brent crude oil price planning assumptions. CCS effects of EUR 72 mn were recognized in Q3/20. The OMV Group's reported Operating Result fell to EUR (607) mn (Q3/19: EUR 905 mn). OMV Petrom's contribution to the Group's reported Operating Result declined to EUR (10) mn (Q3/19: EUR 201 mn).

The net financial result amounted to EUR (59) mn (Q3/19: EUR (29) mn) and was impacted mainly by negative FX effects. With a Group tax rate of 31% (Q3/19: 39%) net income amounted to EUR (458) mn (Q3/19: EUR 535 mn).The net income attributable to stockholders declined sharply to EUR (487) mn (Q3/19: EUR 425 mn). Earnings Per Share amounted to EUR (1.49) (Q3/19: EUR 1.30).

As of September 30, 2020, the net debt excluding leases amounted to EUR 1,830 mn compared to EUR 3,865 mn on September 30, 2019, mainly due to a higher cash balance following the issuance of hybrid bonds. As of September 30, 2020, the gearing ratio excluding leases stood at 11% (September 30, 2019: 23%).

Total capital expenditure came in at EUR 363 mn (Q3/19: EUR 2,769 mn). In Q3/19, total capital expenditure was mainly related to the acquisition of a 15% stake in ADNOC Refining and Trading Joint Venture in the amount of USD 2.43 bn. In Q3/20, organic capital expenditure decreased by 40% to EUR 363 mn (Q3/19: EUR 609 mn).

2 Adjusted for special items and CCS effects

The disclosure of special items is considered appropriate in order to facilitate the analysis of the ordinary business performance. To reflect comparable figures, certain items affecting the result are added back or deducted. These items can be divided into four subcategories: personnel restructuring, unscheduled depreciation and write-ups, asset disposals, and other.

Furthermore, to enable effective performance management in an environment of volatile prices and comparability with peers, the Current Cost of Supply (CCS) effect is eliminated from the accounting result. The CCS effect, also called inventory holding gains and losses, is the difference between the cost of sales calculated using the current cost of supply and the cost of sales calculated using the weighted average method after adjusting for any changes in valuation allowances. In volatile energy markets, measurement of the costs of petroleum products sold based on historical values (e.g., weighted average cost) can have distorting effects on reported results. This performance measurement enhances the transparency of results and is commonly used in the oil industry. OMV, therefore, publishes this measurement in addition to the Operating Result determined according to IFRS.

Third quarter 2020 (Q3/20) compared to third quarter 2019 (Q3/19)

In Q3/20, sources of funds decreased to EUR 687 mn (Q3/19: EUR 1,067 mn) due to the significant impact of a worsened market environment. Net working capital effects generated a cash inflow of EUR 104 mn, compared to EUR 7 mn in Q3/19. As a result, cash flow from operating activities amounted to EUR 791 mn in Q3/20 (Q3/19: EUR 1,074 mn).

Cash flow from investing activities showed an outflow of EUR (423) mn compared to EUR (2,594) mn in Q3/19. The deviation is mainly attributable to the acquisition of a 15% stake in the ADNOC Refining business resulting in a cash outflow of EUR (2,104) mn in Q3/19.

Free cash flow amounted to EUR 368 mn (Q3/19: EUR (1,520) mn).

Cash flow from financing activities recorded an inflow of EUR 1,158 mn compared to EUR 991 mn in Q3/19. While Q3/20 contained the issuance of hybrid bonds with a nominal value of EUR 1.25 bn, in Q3/19 two bonds totaling a nominal value of EUR 1 bn were issued.

Free cash flow after dividends increased to EUR 368 mn in Q3/20 (Q3/19: EUR (1,520) mn).

Organic free cash flow before dividends decreased to EUR 432 mn (Q3/19: EUR 594 mn).

Risk management

As an international oil and gas company with operations extending from hydrocarbon exploration and production through to trading and marketing of mineral oil products and natural gas, OMV is exposed to a variety of risks, including market risks, financial risks, operational risks, and strategic risks. A detailed description of risks and risk management activities can be found in the 2019 Annual Report (pages 80–82).

The main uncertainties that can influence the OMV Group's performance are the commodity price risk, FX risk, operational risks, and also political and regulatory risks. The commodity price risk is monitored constantly, and appropriate protective measures with respect to cash flow are taken, if required. The inherent exposure to safety and environmental risks is monitored through HSSE (Health, Safety, Security, and Environment) and risk management programs, which have a clear commitment to keeping OMV's risks in line with industry standards.

The global outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic continues to have a major impact on the global economic development. While oil prices increased slightly during the second quarter following supply reductions, they still remain significantly volatile. Recent increases in COVID-19 cases around the world could lead to delays in the assumed demand recovery, following the response of governments and citizens. Thus, the consequences of the COVID-19 pandemic and the extent and duration of the economic impact cannot be reliably estimated from today's perspective. However, OMV is closely monitoring the development and regularly evaluating the impact on the Group's cash flow and liquidity position. OMV is responding to the situation with targeted measures to safeguard the Company's economic stability and the secure supply of energy. The health and wellbeing of every employee is the top

priority. At the same time, OMV is implementing targeted measures to safeguard the Company's financial strength, namely reduction of investments, cost cutting, and postponing acquisition projects.

From today's perspective, we assume that based on the measures listed above, the Company's ability to continue as a going concern is not impacted.

More information on current risks can be found in the Outlook section of the Directors' Report.

Outlook

Market environment

► For the year 2020, OMV expects the average Brent crude oil price to be at USD 40/bbl (2019: USD 64/bbl). In 2020, the average realized gas price is anticipated to be lower than EUR 10/MWh (2019: EUR 11.9/MWh).

Group

► In 2020, organic CAPEX is projected to come in at around EUR 1.7 bn (2019: EUR 2.3 bn). 1

Upstream

  • ► OMV expects total production to be between 450 kboe/d and 470 kboe/d in 2020 (2019: 487 kboe/d) depending on the security situation in Libya and imposed production cuts by governments.
  • ► Organic CAPEX for Upstream is anticipated to come in at EUR 1.1 bn in 2020 (2019: EUR 1.6 bn). 1
  • ► In 2020, Exploration and Appraisal (E&A) expenditure is expected to be at EUR 250 mn (2019: EUR 360 mn).

Downstream

  • ► The OMV indicator refining margin is expected to be around USD 2.5/bbl (previous forecast: around USD 3/bbl; 2019: USD 4.4/bbl).
  • ► Petrochemical margins are anticipated to be slightly below the previous year's level (2019: EUR 433/t).
  • ► Total refined product sales in 2020 are forecast to be lower compared to 2019 (2019: 20.9 mn t). In OMV's markets, retail margins are predicted to be higher than in 2019, and commercial margins are predicted to be at the prior-year level.
  • ► The utilization rate of the European refineries is expected to be around 85% (2019: 97%). In 2020, there is no major turnaround planned for our refineries in Europe.
  • ► Natural gas sales volumes in 2020 are projected to be substantially above those in 2019 (2019: 137 TWh).

1 Organic capital expenditure is defined as capital expenditure including capitalized Exploration and Appraisal expenditure and excluding acquisitions and contingent considerations.

Third quarter 2020 (Q3/20) compared to third quarter 2019 (Q3/19)

  • ► The clean Operating Result declined sharply to EUR (24) mn because of substantially lower oil and gas prices.
  • ► Production fell by 36 kboe/d to 444 kboe/d, mainly as a result of the shutdown in Libya.
  • ► Production cost grew to USD 7.5/boe due to lower production volumes

In Q3/20, the clean Operating Result declined sharply from EUR 449 mn to EUR (24) mn. A very challenging market environment and weaker operational performance weighed on the result. Net market effects had a negative impact of EUR (398) mn, mainly a consequence of materially lower average realized oil and gas prices and adverse FX effects. Operational performance lowered returns by EUR (163) mn, as there were no liftings from Libya in Q3/20 due to the force majeure situation. These reductions were partially offset by lower E&A expenses, particularly in Romania and Austria, and higher sales volumes in Malaysia. A positive impact also came from depreciation, which was EUR (87) mn lower, as a result of less production and a reduced asset base due to impairments. In Q3/20, OMV Petrom contributed EUR (11) mn to the clean Operating Result (Q3/19: EUR 115 mn).

In Q3/20, net special items amounted to EUR (1,020) mn (Q3/19: EUR (67) mn), which were mainly related to the impairments triggered by OMV's revision of its long-term Brent crude oil price planning assumptions. The Operating Result decreased strongly to EUR (1,044) mn (Q3/19: EUR 382 mn).

Production cost excluding royalties increased by 18% year-over-year to USD 7.5/boe. While lower production is one key reason for the increase, the cost of ramping up production in Malaysia and higher production costs in the United Arab Emirates are others. OMV Petrom's production cost amounted to USD 11.2/boe.

Total hydrocarbon production decreased by 36 kboe/d to 444 kboe/d. Force majeure in Libya, lower natural gas demand in New Zealand and natural decline in Romania were to some extent counterbalanced by higher output in Malaysia and the United Arab Emirates. OMV Petrom's total production was down by 9 kboe/d at 141 kboe/d, mostly because of natural decline. Total hydrocarbon sales volumes declined to 422 kboe/d (Q3/19: 466 kboe/d) as there were no liftings in Libya. This was partially offset by higher sales volumes in Malaysia.

After a highly volatile Q2/20, the Brent oil price benchmark embarked on a more stable path of recovery during the first two months of Q3/20, occasionally exceeding USD 45/bbl in August. With the growth of global COVID-19 infections restarting in September, insecurity about the further spread of the pandemic and its effects on the global economy and on oil demand impacted investor confidence. Volatility thus came back to the oil price development, which closed the quarter in the low forties. Overall, the average Brent price recovered visibly by 45% over the quarter, to USD 42.9/bbl. In a yearly comparison however, the COVID-19 pandemic and the ongoing producer price war still exerted a strong negative pressure on the oil price development. This is why the Group's average realized crude price declined by 37% year-over-year. Concerning natural gas, demand in Europe gradually recovered to the previous year's level during the course of the quarter, apart from the usual seasonal effects. Consumption had degraded during Q2 on the back of the economic slowdown and widespread restrictions. Starting in late June, the easing of lockdowns and increased economic activity raised consumption, and by August it had almost reached the level of a year earlier. The recovery was supported by substantially lower prices, which improved the competitiveness of gas-fired power generation versus coal. The industrial sector also showed a positive trend, and demand almost improved to the prior-year level. Despite this recent recovery, natural gas prices still remain on a much lower level than a year ago, a consequence of the weak economic environment. In total, OMV's average realized gas price in USD/1,000 cf declined by 27% over the year.

Capital expenditure including capitalized E&A decreased significantly as a result of cost saving measures and reduced activity during the COVID-19 pandemic, from EUR 448 mn to EUR 204 mn in Q3/20. In Q3/20, organic capital expenditure was primarily directed at projects in Romania, Norway, the United Arab Emirates, and New Zealand. Exploration expenditure declined by 66% to EUR 26 mn in Q3/20 and was mainly related to activities in Norway and Romania.

1 Q3/20 compared to Q3/19

2 Adjusted for special items and CCS effects; further information can be found below the table "Special items and CCS effects"

3 Capital expenditure including acquisitions; notably the acquisition of a 15% stake in ADNOC Refining and Trading JV in the amount of USD 2.43 bn in Q3/19

4 Actual refining and petrochemical margins realized by OMV may vary from the OMV indicator refining margin, the ethylene/propylene net margin, and the market margins due to factors including different crude oil slate, product yield, operating conditions, or feedstock.

5 Calculated based on West European Contract Prices (WECP) with naphtha as feedstock

Third quarter 2020 (Q3/20) compared to third quarter 2019 (Q3/19)

  • ► The COVID-19 pandemic led to a challenging market environment, negatively impacting refining margins and refined product sales.
  • ► A positive impact from margin hedges, a stronger performance of the gas business and a resilient retail business suppo rted the result.

The clean CCS Operating Result decreased by 32% to EUR 335 mn (Q3/19: EUR 490 mn) as effects of the COVID-19 pandemic weighed on demand and refining margins. Hedging contracts and a stronger contribution from the gas and the retail businesses helped absorb some of the adverse market effects. OMV Petrom's input to the clean CCS Operating Result of Downstream amounted to EUR 118 mn (Q3/19: EUR 138 mn).

The OMV indicator refining margin weakened by 84% to USD 0.9/bbl (Q3/19: USD 5.5/bbl), mainly a consequence of the persistently weak macro environment and high inventories. Substantially lower middle distillate and lower gasoline cracks dragged down the refining margin. Lower feedstock cost and higher fuel oil and naphtha cracks could only slightly offset this effect. In Q3/20, the utilization rate of the refineries was at a resilient level of 90% (Q3/19: 96%). At 4.7mn t, total refined product sales volumes went down by 16% in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic. This was mainly attributable to commercial sales volumes; in particular, the demand for jet fuel declined. Sales volumes in retail decreased only slightly, and better margins were able to more than offset the adverse volume effects.

The contribution of the petrochemicals business declined to EUR 47 mn (Q3/19: EUR 59 mn) due to lower margins. While the ethylene/propylene net margin decreased by 15%, the benzene and butadiene spreads contracted sharply. The decline in margins could not be fully offset by increased petrochemical sales volumes and an increased operational performance benefiting from lower cost of the feedstock mix.

The contribution of Borealis decreased by EUR 16 mn to EUR 59 mn (Q3/19: EUR 75 mn). This was the result of weaker integrated polyolefin margins, a less favorable fertilizer market environment and a weaker contribution from Borouge, which were partially offset by positive inventory effects and slightly increased sales volumes. Polyolefin sales volumes improved slightly following rising demand from healthcare and packaging. The performance of Borouge was impacted by weaker market conditions in Asia.

OMV Group Report January–September and Q3 2020

October 29, 2020

The contribution of ADNOC Refining & Trading declined by EUR 40 mn to EUR (49) mn (Q3/19: EUR (10) mn). This was mainly attributable to an adverse market environment, which led to lower margins and utilization rates. The Trading JV is currently in the final set-up phase.

The contribution of the gas business more than doubled to EUR 78 mn (Q3/19: EUR 28 mn), mainly as a consequence of the stronger performance of the power and storage businesses as well as lower depreciation. Gas Connect Austria is reclassified as an asset held for sale. The power business in Romania provided strong support thanks to favorable forward contracts. Natural gas sales volumes rose significantly from 27.2 TWh to 33.3 TWh on account of higher sales volumes in Germany, the Netherlands, Hungary and Austria, and were slightly offset by lower sales in Romania.

Net special items amounted to EUR 23 mn (Q3/19: EUR (36) mn) and were mainly related to a write-up of the Brazi power plant, partially offset by unrealized commodity derivatives. In Q3/200, CCS effects of EUR 85 mn were mainly a consequence of an increasing price level in the quarter. As a result, the Operating Result of Downstream decreased to EUR 444 mn compared to EUR 518 mn in Q3/19.

Capital expenditure in Downstream amounted to EUR 155 mn (Q3/19: EUR 2,281 mn). In Q3/19 capital expenditure was mainly related to the acquisition of a 15% stake in ADNOC Refining and Trading Joint Venture in the amount of USD 2.43 bn. In Q3/20, organic capital expenditure was predominantly related to investments in the European refineries and in the retail business.

Selected notes to the consolidated interim financial statements

Legal principles

The condensed consolidated interim financial statements for the nine months ended September 30, 2020, have been prepared in accordance with IAS 34 "Interim Financial Statements."

The condensed consolidated interim financial statements do not include all the information and disclosures required in the annual statements and should be read in conjunction with the Group's annual financial statements as of December 31, 2019.

The condensed consolidated interim financial statements for 9m/20 are unaudited, and an external review by an auditor was not performed.

The condensed consolidated interim financial statements for 9m/20 have been prepared in million EUR (EUR mn, EUR 1,000,000). Accordingly, there may be rounding differences.

In addition to the consolidated interim financial statements, further information on main items affecting the consolidated interim financial statements as of September 30, 2020, is given as part of the description of OMV's business segments in the Directors' Report.

Accounting policies

The accounting policies in effect on December 31, 2019, remain largely unchanged. The amendments effective since January 1, 2020, did not have a material effect on the Group's interim financial statements.

Changes in the consolidated Group

Compared with the consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2019, the consolidated Group changed as follows:

Changes in consolidated Group
Name of company Registered office Type of change 1 Effective date
Downstream
OMV Deutschland Marketing & Trading GmbH & Co. KG Burghausen First consolidation April 1, 2020
OMV Deutschland Operations GmbH & Co. KG Burghausen First consolidation April 1, 2020
OMV Gas Marketing & Trading d.o.o. Zagreb Deconsolidation (L) June 30, 2020
OMV Offshore Bulgaria GmbH Vienna Parent company change 2 August 31, 2020

1 "First consolidation" refers to newly formed or existing subsidiaries. "Deconsolidation (L)" refers to companies deconsolidated following a liquidation process. 2100% shares of OMV Offshore Bulgaria GmbH have been transferred from OMV Exploration & Production GmbH to OMV Petrom S.A.

Other significant transactions

Downstream

On March 12, 2020, OMV and Mubadala Investment Company, the Abu Dhabi-based strategic investment company, signed the share purchase agreement for the acquisition of the additional 39% share in Borealis AG for a purchase price of USD 4.68 bn, whereby OMV is entitled to all dividends in relation to such additional share in Borealis distributed after December 31, 2019. The amendment agreement signed on March 26, 2020, provides for the purchase price to be paid by OMV in two tranches: USD 2.34 bn at closing of the transaction and USD 2.34 bn no later than December 31, 2021, at a market interest rate from closing. OMV has the option to pay the deferred amount in full or in part at closing of the transaction or following closing at the end of each month until December 31, 2021.

To mitigate the foreign currency risk, OMV decided to hedge 100% of the firm commitment by executing FX options (combination of options that constitute a net purchase option), FX forwards and by using USD deposits. These hedging instruments are accounted for as a cash flow hedge and will be included and recognized adjusting the consideration given for the purchase price allocation. The hedging strategy follows actual payments of USD and any changes in timing will be handled via FX swaps or USD deposits. As of September 30, 2020, a negative amount before taxes of EUR (64) mn was recognized in other comprehensive income.

Due to divestment plans to sell the 51% stake in Gas Connect Austria GmbH, the Gas Connect Group and associated goodwill were reclassified to assets and liabilities held for sale in Q1/20 without an impact on the income statement at that time. The sales agreement with VERBUND was signed on September 23, 2020.

OMV plans to divest the retail network (287 filling stations) in Germany, which led to the reclassification of the assets and liabilities to held for sale as of June 30, 2020. The reclassification did not lead to any impairment loss.

Seasonality and cyclicality

Seasonality is of significance, especially in the Downstream business segment. For details, please refer to the section "Business segments."

Notes to the income statement

Impairment charges Upstream

The COVID-19 pandemic continues to have a major impact on global economic development. While oil prices increased slightly during the second quarter following supply reductions, they still remain significantly volatile. Recent increases in COVID-19 cases around the world could lead to delays in the assumed demand recovery, following the response of governments and citizens.

In Q1/20, OMV changed the short-term assumptions as follows: Brent oil price USD 40/bbl for 2020 (reduced from USD 60/bbl) and USD 50/bbl for 2021 (reduced from USD 70/bbl), and realized gas price EUR 10/MWh in 2020 (reduced from EUR 12/MWh). This led to a pre-tax impairment of EUR 120 mn in Q1/20 for the producing oil and gas assets, mainly related to assets in New Zealand.

During Q3/20, OMV updated its mid-term plan and revised its long-term planning assumptions. The long-term Brent oil price assumptions were reduced to USD 60/bbl real, from USD 75/bbl applied before. The detailed Brent oil price assumptions are as follows:

  • ► For 2021, OMV confirmed its oil price forecast of USD 50/bbl.
  • ► The oil price expectations for 2022 and 2023 were reduced to USD 60/bbl from USD 70/bbl and USD 75/bbl, respectively.
  • ► For the years 2024 to 2029, OMV assumed a Brent oil price of USD 65/bbl (before USD 75/bbl), which is expected to gradually decline to USD 60/bbl until 2035.
  • ► From 2035 onwards, OMV used a Brent oil price of USD 60/bbl.
  • ► All assumptions for the years 2025 onwards are based on 2025 real terms.

This led to pre-tax impairments (net of write-ups) of EUR 1,016 mn in Q3/20 for exploration and appraisal, development and production oil and gas assets, mainly related to assets in New Zealand, Romania, Austria, and Abu Dhabi. A potential 1 percentage point increase of the after-tax discount rate would lead to additional post-tax impairments of EUR 200 mn to EUR 300 mn for producing assets and assets currently in the development phase as well as exploration and appraisal assets.

Downstream

During Q3/20, the long-term power and CO2 price assumptions were revised taking into account the improved power generation market. This led to the full reversal of impairments for the Brazi gas-fired power plant in Romania amounting to EUR 107 mn pretax.

Inventory valuation

9m/20 was significantly impacted by net impairments of inventories amounting to EUR 54 mn due to a significant price decrease.
